“We had the joy of walking with Mark on our Coast to Coast walking holiday for 2 weeks. He looked after the group really well, giving us daily information, booking tables for evening meals and pointing out things of interest during the day. His skills are excellent. It gave us a sense of achievement and fulfilled a long held dream of walking the coast to coast path.”
